Maggnificent Monday

34

This is Maggie's special pre-race outfit for the chilly chilly Sunday morning. When we got out of the car we could see our breath, so even though Mags is a little too big for this snowsuit, she was grateful to be snuggly warm. And it also kept her body kind of straight and rigid so it was easy to carry her and nurse her at the same time (we were running a little bit late so I had to walk to the start line of the race while nursing her -- but I got to pee before starting to run). All reports are that she enjoyed her time out in the park with all sorts of strangers blazing past; and Bill, who could see her face as I held her, said she was smiling as we crossed the finish line all of us together. And she got a medal too!

Maggie has a great game that she loves to play. It's the "give it to you" game. She picks up some object and then holds it out for you to take. More often than not she wants it back again, but she can be convinced that just handing it over is fun. Like when doing the laundry and there's a whole big pile of stuff to be picked up one after the other. We really like this game and encourage it a lot.

And look at that tooth up on top! She now officially has 2 above and 2 below. Still waiting on those other two up there.
